Artist Statement

Through seeing drawing as the visualization of the thought
process, my practice investigates the narrative, social, visual and genetic
possibilities of individuals as they go about their mundane daily tasks. I
express within a multitude of drawing methods and types, my practice forces me
to adopt many roles, such as visual journalist, voyeur and director. Thus it is
allowing the findings to be extended by the viewer either physically, visually
or within their imagination.
